Still remembering Mr Olson with fondness of his jokes while playing cards at night around the table ... Love and hugs to all the family!

It´s been close to 4 years now since dad has been gone. Three months since he passed, my beloved husband, Harold passed too. Mom and I commiserate almost daily since we became widows. I´m glad we have grown closer. Also, Joshua became engaged to Marisa Dew and will marry on November 2, 2025. Life does go on, but we carry dad with us every step of the way. Dad, I see you in both of my children. Joshua, in how he thinks he knows everything about everything! No, really, he is very smart and stays current on so many subjects and has opinions on almost every topic...you would be so proud! Vanessa has your determined spirit to accomplish any task she puts her mind to. She is so creative and talented in designing and constructing her civil war era dresses. She can also go under the hood of her car and fix minor ailments. Whatever it is, she´ll figure it out. I miss you dad, and Harold too, but I´m enjoying life alone now, as is mom. We are figuring it out and smiling at the memories you left behind.
